Fortune And Humor Govern The World.

There Is Nothing Men Are So Generous Of As Advice.

We Do Not Like To Praise, And Seldom Praise Anyone Without Self-interest.

When Fortune Surprises Us By Giving Us Some Great Office Without Having Gradually Led Us To Expect It, Or Without Having Raised Our Hopes, It Is Well Nigh Impossible To Occupy It Well, And To Appear Worthy To Fill It.

We Are Lazier In Our Minds Than In Our Bodies.

There Are Some Good Marriages, But Practically No Delightful Ones.
